One Big Labor Problem Solved 



"Y"OU can't cut down productive 

 1 labor without cutting down 

 production. But you can cut 

 down handling labor and there- 

 by actually increase production. 

 Here's how: 



Convey by Gravity — to and from 

 cars, floor to floor, operation to oper- 

 ation, warehouse to shipping plat- 

 form, etc. Gravity conveying speeds 

 up production by keeping the lines 

 of supply and output open; hands 

 busy; machines "fed". 



Gravity costs nothing — draws no 

 pay; consumes no fuel. Gravity 

 reports every morning; no hands 

 short. Gravity stays on the job; 

 lives forever and never goes on 

 strike. Gravity works most any- 

 where and carries most anything — 

 boxes or bales, barrels or buckets, 

 bundles or bags, cases or crates, 

 cartons or cans, lumber or bricks, 

 castings or pig, etc. 



Gravity conveying saves in a way 

 that can be plainly seen — in smaller 



payrolls, lower costs, greater pro- 

 duction. Look into it. A letter or 

 postcard brings further information 

 and, if desired, a nearby Mathews 

 branch sales engineer qualified and 

 glad to discuss your particular prob- 

 lems. No obligation. 



Mathews systems are the most 

 thorough exponents of gravity con- 

 veying on the market. They are 

 engineered systems. Each is spe- 

 cially adapted to the requirements 

 of the business, plant, layout, han- 

 dling routes of the concern it is to 

 serve. Portable single units for 

 light work, short hauls, etc. 



Patented drawn-steel, ball- 

 bearing rollers balanced true and 

 shaped to hold objects to their 

 course. Special rollers for brick 

 and tile, bundled shingles, etc.
